About us

Why did I start painting?

About 4 years ago, a tragic incident happened in my life. It tore me to my bare, raw minimum. About 6 months after it happened, someone invited me to a painting class that one of our local artist held. I've always been a drawer and I've never tried painting so, why not?

Going to that class changed my life. Painting became a form of therapy to me. It helped me through depression and anxiety. I started getting excited about painting classes and just things in general again. Jan, the painting teacher, is such a blessing in my life. She made things fun for me again. I started smiling again :) 

Who you are:

I, like many people, am many things.

My name is Val Siragusa and I live in Waterloo, Ontario. I'm currently a Registered Massage Therapist, working at at an award winning clinic! I decided to become an RMT because, well, I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to do, I know I wanted to help people. Currently I've been intrigued with the idea of getting into working with animals. Animals have always had a place in my heart, sometimes more than people. I'm an athlete. I'm a goof. I'm a dedicated Comiconer,  and a fantasy football champion. :) 

I'm made from all the people I love.

 

Why you sell the items you sell:

Art has always been a big part of my life, my own or others, I love it all. When I started painting, people became interested in buying my art, so I was encouraged to try and sell it.
